Pune, July 23: Suzlon is powering Waaree Group’s maiden wind project in Andhra Pradesh through a 201.6 MW order from Waaree Forever Energies Private Limited , the group’s Independent Power Producer arm. Executed under the Suzlon DevCo model, the project marks a strategic milestone in both companies’ evolution as integrated renewable energy solutions players.
As renewable energy projects become larger and more complex, end-to-end execution models like DevCo are emerging as preferred models to enable faster execution, reduce development risks, and achieve greater scalability.
Under the project, Suzlon will install 64 nos. of its flagship S144 wind turbine generators, with a rated capacity of 3.15 MW each in Andhra Pradesh. Suzlon will deliver its comprehensive EPC offering, covering land acquisition, turbine supply, Balance of Plant commissioning, and life-time operations & maintenance services.
Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman, Suzlon Group, said,
“This partnership is strategically important as it unites two companies whose growth has mirrored the evolution of India’s renewable energy sector. Waaree and Suzlon have been trailblazers in solar and wind, respectively, each building world-class manufacturing ecosystems and establishing a strong global presence. As both evolve into integrated renewable energy leaders, this partnership reflects the industry’s future — where customers seek integrated solutions, not standalone technologies, and where the DevCo business model is gaining strong momentum.”
Ajay Kapur, Chief Executive Officer, Suzlon Group, stated,
“We thank Waaree Group for entrusting us with their maiden wind project. This is our second consecutive DevCo–led EPC order within a week, which reinforces growing demand for partners like us who can de-risk execution and deliver at scale. Our integrated project development and EPC capabilities are becoming a key differentiator in this evolving market.”
Pawan Agrawal, Chief Executive Officer, Waaree Forever Energies Private Limited, said,
“Through Waaree Forever Energies Pvt Ltd, Waaree‘s IPP arm, we are building a diversified renewable portfolio that goes beyond solar to serve India’s growing energy needs. It is a natural extension of Waaree‘s mission to power India’s clean energy transition. This 201.6 MW wind project with Suzlon in Andhra Pradesh is an important milestone in that journey, and we look forward to a long-term partnership that strengthens India’s renewable energy ecosystem.”
